Sandbox : Bionic Lyrics
Curious
Caught the train, took a roadSearchin' for a pot of gold
Never knew, and never told
And I wonder where you are, Curious There was a time, I knew a man
We travelled in a caravan
He said seek and you shall find
But I haven't found
And I wonder where you are, Curious
And I wonder where you are, saved by trust
And I wonder where you are
Curious
What is that, far away?
Same garage as yesterday
Hey there mister, got a drug
To take my mind away,
And I wonder where you are, Curious And I wonder where you are, saved by trust
And I wonder where you are
Curious
Forty years down the road
[you say I know]
Haven't found that pot of gold
[all these faces I don't know]
Getting tired, I'm going home
And I wonder where you are, Curious
And I wonder where you are, saved by trust
And I wonder where you are...
Collide
Take, a look inside,Your mirror eyes are a disguise of what is real
My mind, is getting clearer
I'm running out of time, the time I need to heal
Chorus:
And I got this funny feeling,
That you're living inside, inside
And I forgot that was the reason,
When we gonna collide
Sideways, down an empty hole,
You jumped the gun, nowhere to run,
Yeah, it's for real
Climbing, up to see the sun,
But the sun burns through your open
Hands of steel
Chorus Caught up in yourself,
It happens all the time
I'm flying forward,
You're fading fast,
Someday the sun'll never shine
For You
You feel me imprintingvisions on your mind,
But is it right for you to hate me?
Dream away, I'll dream all day
if I decide
That things are not what they seem lately
Chorus:
I can't see the man,
Standing in the light
But I can hear him say
That it'll be alright
A burning cross is lighting up
an open field
And I can see you standing in it
A wrinkled man is asking
Do you know what's real?
And I ask do you know what isn't?
Chorus You paint pictures
with a different coloured sky
And that's the world that you
belong in
Chorus
Decisions
I have an illness, that comes and goesA feeling inside, a reason inside
She comes towards me,
I can't control me, I leave her behind
Chorus:
I cannot decide, is this the time
I cannot decide
I have been tempted, who hasn't been?
I try to hold back, she pulls me in
I can't explain my, my malady
But it controls me, who can console me?
Chorus And these feelings break me
Maybe I will concede
What have I done?
It's been a long time, since I gave in
To my addiction, where's my ambition?
I haven't seen her, where has she been?
Still I feel empty, until you tempt me again
Chorus
Grief
If you put me, on a ship of fools,I'd be the only one, without a clue
But I don't need to hear what you say
And I don't have to play i nyour game
Selfish power of everyone
Can you spare me the fun?
You're a shallow one,
The way you have your fun
Always looking for,
Someone else's score
I'm sure you know you get under my skin
When you're wrong,
and you still have your grin
Always want the things I own
But your way's overblown
You're not above me What I want to know,
is why you give me grief
It's an endless road, I get no relief
The only thing that gets me through
Is when people know the joke's on you
We're never welcome in your crowd
Where are you at night?
Three Balloons And A Trapdoor
There's a feeling I been misplaced,But my soul is safely riding three balloons
There's a shelter of a magic kind
Where falseness is a passion you won't find
I'm breathing fog but I don't mind
My body has no sense of time
I'm hearing sounds I can't explain,
All I can do is, fly away
Can a vision fall short of dreams?
There's a downy angel crouching at my feet
Illusions fill my sleeping head and
Dreams fade like a runway strip on fire
My eyes betray, my mind rewinds
I feel myself go back in time
A severed dream I want to stay,
All I can do is, fly away
Angels never show you trapdoors,
But they don't lie
Angels never show you trapdoors,
Until illusions die away
A Sunday smile falls from my face
I can't persuade in worlds I cannot stay
Gracious blood flows through my veins
But my soul is safely riding three balloons
A fearless space of touch and time
Where everything is genuine
My fingers grasp but I can't stay
All I can do is, fly away
Here And There
Sitting on a giant spool., I am hopingThat a thought will be here soon, begin coping
Another day in make believe
Is knowing that you'll have to grieve in time
Chorus:
Should another martyr sin?
Should I die and let you in?
I explode when I'm alone
When will you be coming home?
In my mind I am home
Follow me through fortune's way
I'll be standing
This is not a brand new day,
a fear of landing
Looking for a stable mind
Is something I could never seem to find
Chorus You once told me of a prophecy
you had when you were young
We'd sit on the sun hear an angel?
Now all the trees have eyes
and I despise the way you look at me
I am on the run
Chorus
Live
Your face, all smiles for everyoneIt comes once or twice,
and then it's gone
To have a piece of your life again
The sun, is on it's last descent
You cry, but no one hears a word
And you make yourself forget
the cries that no once heard
You slip away, it's cold out today,
Better stay inside
A room full of empty chairs
It's dark - little strength to keep you here
Your eyes feel heavy upon your face
You sleep - fade away
Tonight your sun will rise again
And you feel yourself awake
as the new day begins
You open your eyes and feel so alive
Flux
I got my eyes to see me throughI should have expected as much from you
I got my hands to hold you down
Pick you up again before you drown
A faceless name, a nameless face
I find it hard to remember who was
second place
But you keep me inclined,
my thoughts entertained
I won't forget the places,
I will remember the names
Chorus:
Flux - flowing out of me
Flux - growing inside of me
Flux - I'm going out of my mind
So I left it behind and put you to rest
I swallowed my feelings,
but they were hard to digest
And as I try to connect
with what's in my head
I am taken over by the things that were said
Chorus I see you, I can't hear you
Weatherman
Can you see a martyrstaring out through crystal eyes?
A million days, a million faces I despise
I control when I am in a hole
I'm at me best
Rotting is a word not often used in jest
I am your weatherman Counting is fun unless you're
counting holes in your head
But these are only words,
so how can you be misled?
I am your weatherman
Lustre
Fear, is fineIf that's true, I'm gonna have to
Hide, my eyes
In a different time and place we'd
Shine, I can only see you when you shine,
You don't listen, when I tell you
We had, and we owned,
But we spent it all on tomorrow
We ate, and we choked,
But we did it without sorrow
Can you climb
Back to once upon a time
When you were shy
In a different time and place we'd
Shine, I can only see you when you shine
You don't listen, when I tell you
We had, and we owned,
But we spent it all on tomorrow
We ate, and we choked,
But we did it without sorrow
...and the Mood Changes
I met a man who diesWe sat and talked a while
About a person he once knew
That day I sat and closed my eyes
In the time that passed
I thought I might be saved
Would I be saved
Can we really
Be expected to lead this one
My mind was fine
Until you filled it up with reason
He saw the world was wrong
He sang a twisted song
About a person just like you
A sorry string of twisted lies
A gram of reasons
I might want to stay
Let me stay
Can we really
Be expected to lead this one
My mind was fine
Until you filled it up with reason
And the sound comes swirling around
And it knocks you to the ground
I met a man who dies
We sat and talked a while
About a person whoop de do
